WASHINGTON -- The wife of a U.S. senator is due in court next month, charged with assault after an alleged incident at a garden center.

Wanda Baucus is the wife of Democratic Sen. Max Baucus of Montana. She is accused of assaulting a woman Tuesday at Johnson's Garden Center on Van Ness Street, Northwest.

The alleged incident happened in the parking lot of the garden center.

Sources told News4 Mrs. Baucus was upset because another customer was getting help with mulch ahead of her.

The alleged victim said Mrs. Baucus parked her silver BMW so that it blocked the woman's car. After the two exchanged words, Mrs. Baucus allegedly struck the woman with a closed fist and then struck her several more times in the upper body, according to court documents.

Then, witnesses said, Mrs. Baucus drove away.

one word...Prozac

This was an incident waiting to happen.
With all this talk about columbine, it's no wonder.




writers note:
for those non-gardners, columbine is a flowering perennial ( as well as the name of the high school in Colorado).

She should have gone to the Jefferson (WV) County Solid Waste Transfer
Station...you can get a yard of mulch there for only 8 bucks, and there's
NO WAITING !!!

I say they should euthanize her.

Wait - wrong thread.

She should get in touch with Munson in Hagerstown!

It's free at the Washington Co. landfill on earthcare rd.

I don't think it's free, Greedy. At least it wasn't last summer. However, it was only $6 for a whole load in mmy neighbor's Dakota!

My bad...

Do they load it for the $6?

I always see people just loading it themselfs.

I think you just drive up, they dump it in with a loader thingy, and you go back over the scales.

When I lived in Fairfax County, you could get it for free at the dump, and they would load it for you. They got to know my truck real well! You just had to hope that there was no poison ivy in the stuff they ground up to make the mulch.

If you're not a Washington County resident, can you still get it for free at the landfill on Earthcare Road? I pass by there every day I go to work. I could just take the truck instead of the car on Monday. Please let me know. Thanx!

OOOPS! I mean for $6. Heck, I'd even pay $8 for a whole truckload!

As far as I know, they don't ask about residency. Now, if you have out of state plates on tour truck, it might be a diferent story. I wasn't in the truck. My neighbor drove and my hubby went along. Best advice, call 'em and ask. 240-313-2790. We'll be out there soon ourselves!
